Also true when troubleshooting technical problems.

If you’re a complete noob and you have super simple tech problems, an LLM might occasionally help you out. If you have complex problems, an LLM will confidently send you on a wild goose chase. If you’re a noob, you won’t know until you’ve already spent a lot of time banging your head against the wall. (Don’t ask me how I know.) It takes experience to notice that the output is completely useless or even harmful.
